There have been a number of previous releases for this radio broadcast captured on the 2nd US tour as part of the "My Aim Is True" tour. Previous releases appear to range from a lossy version to a few different versions with radio static, cuts, glitches or a missing song. 

This is a new previously uncirculated, in the torrent era, source from my 1st generation tape. I believe it is a material upgrade at least to the sources I've heard and takes care of all the above issues, I don't claim it to be superior to all versions as I have not heard them all. 

There was a minor flaw, less the a second of silence, during an instrumental portion of "Lipstick Vogue" but this was seamlessly taken out. The quality dips just a tick on the last 3 songs in the wideness of the frequency spectrum but remains exc...samples provided. 

I was having trouble dialing in the pitch on this one so it was shipped off to the good professor's lab to work his magic, thanks to Prof. Goody for the pitch settings.
